About Change Points:
Why the name "Change Points"? Life takes us through intersections, detours, wash-outs, four-wheel terrain, and rolling prairies. Naomi has traveled these terrains and subsequently speaks on, and writes about, transitions, loss, challenges, relationships, and other life-changing points in life.
Who makes up Change Points? Change Points is a blend of people with diverse experiences, capabilities, technical abilities, and promotional bents. These people synergistically spin off one another, fill in one another's gaps, and surprise themselves with the created outcome.
